A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day....06-25-03....Hall of Fame #4
Billie

Posted on 06/25/2003 7:18:52 AM PDT by Billie



A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day
Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997.   Over 100,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic, and the forum is read daily by tens of thousands of concerned citizens and patriots from all around the country and the world.
A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day was introduced on June 24, 2002. It's only a small room in JimRob's house where we can get to know one another a little better; salute and support our military and our leaders; pray for those in need; and congratulate those deserving. We strive to keep our threads entertaining, fun, and pleasing to look at, and often have guest writers contribute an essay, or a profile of another FReeper.
On Mondays please visit us to see photos of A FEW OF FR'S VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY
If you have a suggestion, or an idea, or if there's a FReeper you would like to see featured, please drop one of us a note in FR mail.
We're having fun and hope you are!

~ Billie, Mama_Bear, dansangel, dutchess, Aquamarine ~











A GREAT BIG
to all our Hall of Famers and to all of you who have become part of our Finest Family ... as regular contributors and supporters who drop in every day to say hello and give a 'pat on the back' to the "Freeper of the Day" and the hostesses.  We wouldn't be here without you. : )





It's been nine months today since our debut, and we're still having fun. We hope you are. As promised, for your information and perusal, here is our third "Hall of Fame" - a list of all those who've held center stage ... from Monday, June 24, 2002 through Friday, March 21, 2003.

06-24-03 FR Finest One Year Anniversary

Opinions by our own 'King of Ping'
The guy's good, folks!
Thanks, Mixer!

1) Click on the graphic to open the Calendar.
2) Once there you can click on any month and even click to the right to go into next year. Once you are in the month that you joined FR you will need to click on the number in the calendar and then an add item screen will come up.
3) In the next box enter your name in the "Calendar Text" field and then click on submit.
4) If any of the screens fail to load simply click on refresh in your browser and that will usually fix it.
5) If all else fails or simply if you want me to do this for you send me a FReepmail and I will gladly do it for you. ~Mixer

"Who is that? Rodney King????"

Dunno - he was lurking on Google.com, stole the cake,
and paused long enough for me to 'picture' him!

Now, SEEEEEEEE! I knew you were preparing a special cake for me. It's so beautiful! I want to share it with EVERYONE!!!

This is from The Thin Man - please enjoy - it's called "UglyCake2" - I'm wondering where "UglyCake1" is. :)

Fifty-one years ago today, I held up my hand and began the birthing process that resulted in my becoming a U.S. MARINE...:))

Really? Well, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Semper Fi, and bless you for taking that oath.

That would be a great pledge graphic. (Actually, half of jwfiv's posts would qualify. I have no idea how he finds his stuff -- it's terrific.)

Billie...Have to tell you that Lori was a great "substitute mentor!". It's been awhile since I've had to create a background/table etc. from scratch and was feeling pretty overwhelmed. She jumped right in and did the pretty "finishing touches"! (THANKS LORI!)

The only thing I'm surprised at is that you 'needed' the help on the background/table etc! But I could see Lori's prints all over Free's, (or else Free's holding out on me and pretending she can't do that stuff yet so I'll keep doing it for her!) LOL!

You know, when The Thin Man hands you a picture of a knife that large, I think you have to be verrrrry careful.

I'm surprised you didn't let the wolf...um...cat....out of the bag to Billie.

Right. So am I (surprised), actually. I was sorely tempted. It didn't seem, for example, quite fair for LadyX not to know. It's so up her alley and this is so much her territory and Billie is so much her friend. So last night, I did post something about trouble afoot soon for her benefit.
